"The adventure will begin the minute we step through the gate." Three friends make a springtime outing to the modest fort they've built on the other side of a meadow: they get a little lost in the tall grass, they get caught in a surprising storm, and they end the day with cups of dandelion tea. It's a lush, slightly scary, and ultimately sweet story of friendship and the first fruits of independence. (Age 1 to 5)
